Imagine you wanted to develop a focus group on college students' perception of crime on campus. Answer these questions: How would you recruit students for the group? What types of students would you try to include? How would you introduce the topic and the method to the group? What questions would you ask? What would you do if a person in your focus group monopolized the conversation?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers will vary. I would recruit students by posting flyers in student centers, dining halls, the gym, and class buildings. I would like to include types of students that are representative of the broader student body, but I would make sure to include individuals from sororities and fraternities. I would like to ask whether they perceive alcohol-related crime as high, what they think about the prevalence of theft, how many of them have had something stolen on campus, and if there are well-known crime hot spots on campus. If a student was monopolizing the conversation, I would kindly state that I would like all students to participate.
